The international transfer window came to an end this Tuesday. Santos had a timid performance in the market. There were more departures than arrivals at the club. Below, see a summary of who joined and who left the Peixe.
The forward was the first reinforcement announced by the management in 2026. The 29-year-old player had no space at Cruzeiro and signed on loan, until December, with the club that introduced him to football.
So far, he has played nine matches in the black and white jersey, starting in eight, with four goals and two assists.
For the midfield, Santos sought the signing of Gabriel Menino, a product of Palmeiras. The midfielder joined on loan, with a contract until the end of the year, granted by Atlético-MG.
Since his announcement, he has played 10 games, starting in seven and scoring twice.
The Uruguayan midfielder signed with Peixe for three years and became the club's fifth reinforcement in 2026. Oliva has not debuted yet. The management had to postpone his announcement due to a transfer ban. The team was unable to register players for eight days.
The former Atlético-MG player is one of Santos' main bets for the season. The 30-year-old player, who stood out at Palmeiras, has already played seven matches for the new team, starting in four, with one goal and one assist.
Rony's contract with Peixe is valid for three years.
The forward was a request from Juan Pablo Vojvoda. The coach worked with Moisés at Fortaleza. The 29-year-old athlete quickly gained space in the team. He has played four matches so far (two as a starter), with one goal and one assist.
The contract is for three years with the Alvinegro Praiano.
On the last day of the window, Santos finalized the signing of Lucas Veríssimo. The 30-year-old defender belonged to Al-Duhail, Qatar, but was on loan at Al-Wakrah, in the same country. The contract is permanent, for three years. Peixe's management will pay 4 million dollars (about R$ 21 million).
Lucas Veríssimo was developed in Santos' youth categories. He has 190 appearances for the professional team, along with seven goals and three assists. He had been in Qatari football since January 2024, after leaving Corinthians, where he played 18 matches. The defender also had a stint at Benfica, Portugal.
At Al-Wakrah, where he was until then, the Brazilian played 14 games. His last appearance was on February 27.
Santos underwent a major overhaul of the squad and parted ways with several players. Some returned from loan to be negotiated again, while others lost space with Juan Pablo Vojvoda and were released.
In addition, Santos' management finalized two sales. The young left-back Souza was sold to Tottenham, England, for 15 million euros (approximately R$ 94.4 million). Meanwhile, forward Guilherme went to Houston Dynamo, USA, for 2 million dollars (about R$ 11 million).
